    Audi reveals 2009 A3 facelift and A3 Sportback

    ok that a3 looks just plain bad! but i think the s3 isn't to bad. I'm just not keen on the over sized side mirrors and the led's so that leaves the only real change that i like being the little bump above the fog lights. Lame audi... Two facelifts... Now you're just getting lazy!

    RNS-E help

    Oh you're kidding me so it's that easy! You don't really need anything to do the install just unplug, swap pin, plug everything back in including GPS antenna, vagcom code and you're away!?!?

    RNS-E help

    Yeah been told about that error a few times... Doesn't bother me much. Where will this error be displayed? Vagcom? The poor FM reception doesn't bother me at all. I haven't used the radio once since i got the car.

    RNS-E help

    I'm quite sure the connector i'm using was setup for bose already so i should be fine... I hope. I'll double check it though. I don't have vagcom but a friend said he'd help me out. Can anything go wrong with me not coding it and driving around for a day or two?

    S3 vs R32

    Well for me it's S3 all the way. Johannesburg is 1,753 M (5,751.3 FT) above sea level so the NA engines suffer bad. I fly past the few R32's i see and i hear that the stock golf gti's are faster than the stock R32's thanks to the turbo.Altitude loves turbos
